Are Your Stars Like My Stars?

by Leslie Helakoski

Description

In this lyrical, emotionally resonant collection, a speaker looks up at the night sky and finds a language for longing, wonder, and the complicated work of being human. Across poems that move between intimacy and vastness, the stars become both metaphor and mirror—inviting readers to consider how memory, love, and loss shape the stories we tell ourselves. With Helakoski’s clear, vivid imagery and attentive musicality, the book explores themes of connection, resilience, and the search for meaning in moments that feel both distant and deeply personal. Whether you’re drawn to contemplative lyric poetry or to poems that hold grief and hope in the same breath, this is a journey through light, time, and the heart.
